Yeah lets wait til AJ has some time on the field before we determine if it's an upgrade or not. Navarro Bowman barely played his rookie year, same with Kaep. They turned out ok. Go look up Steve Smith's WR stats his rookie year.

Niners released a decent longsnapper, and the Hawks claimed him. They released a quality backup WR, and the Niners claimed him. He might be good at special teams (I don't know much about the guy), but with Crab going down they need to see all their options. Also possibly getting a little info on the biggest division rival helps as well.

This appears to be a chess match between both teams, maybe it's knowledge gleaning, maybe it actual help, maybe it's just button pushing for each regime. It's funny to watch how this stuff plays out every spring and during camp.

To Be P/C or Not P/C That is the Question..........Seahawks kick Ass !!!! Check your PM's, Thank you for everything Radish RIP My Friend. Member of the 38 club.

Martin might be the best player they have acquired from the Hawks yet. He saw a little action.

If I was the Niners, with 2 guys coming off knees and another missing most if not all of the season, two of which were starters, I would be digging pretty deep. They are just doing their best to put together a functional group of guys and trying to find a little depth, because they really cant absorb another injury.

I think back to 2008, when our last WR went down in week 2 against the Niners, which cost us the season.

The only concern I have and I mean only is that Bevell will get cute and pass even though Lynch is gaining yardage. 1/30/2015 - loaf

This back and forth might speak volumes about the underlying respect the two organizations have for each other's coaches and talent evaluators. Seems they think each other's scraps are likely more talented and better coached than the next best alternatives.

You might be surprised at how many of our final cuts make other teams finals rosters. I'm sure you could pick at least 2-3 players that might get cut that you wouldn't mind having on the main squad as I could with my team as well.
